Welcome to the Journal
Sometimes faith is loud. Sometimes it’s a whisper in the dark. This space was created for both.
Here, I share what I’m learning in the Word, in my walk with Jesus, and in the everyday intersections of faith, culture, leadership, and calling. Some entries are deep dives into Scripture. Others are heart spills from the frontlines of ministry, and others are just realizations from the messy middle. I don’t have all the answers—but I do have questions, stories, and a deep desire to follow Jesus well.
My prayer is that these words help you know God more deeply, wrestle through the hard questions honestly, and find hope that anchors you in truth.
They Are Bread For Us
When you read the Bible, it is rare to see someone respond to a giant the way David does. He looks at Goliath and basically says, “Yeah, he’s big. Totally scary. But my God is bigger and stronger. Let’s do this!” Ever since I was a kid, everyone has used David’s story...
When You Don’t Make It to the Tent
There are moments in Scripture that feel quietly disruptive, not loud miracles, not dramatic rescues, but holy interruptions that reshape how we understand God’s nearness. Numbers 11:16–30 is one of those moments. Moses is exhausted. The weight of leadership is heavy,...
The Storm of Perspective
Numbers 5:1–4 is one of those passages that can make a tender heart flinch. People being sent outside the camp. Illness, impurity, messiness. It can look like God is removing people from His presence. And if you have ever been misunderstood, falsely accused, or swept...
‘Still Waters’ Flash
There are stories that you write, and stories that write you. For me, tattoos have always been both. Each one marks a season, a lesson, a storm survived. They’re not just art on skin—they’re coordinates on the map of who I’ve become. The penmanship of those I love....
Order Before Overflow
As I’ve been walking through Numbers, I’ve been struck by how often the word “list” appears. In Numbers 3:14–51, God instructs Moses to count the Levites, assign duties, designate roles, and list every name, family, and function. At first glance, it seemed tedious,...
You have one Job: Guard
When God called the Levites and consecrated them for service, He was clear about their purpose. They weren’t just assigned duties or given a title — they were set apart to represent Him, His people, and His temple. As I read Numbers 3:5-13, one word keeps repeating...
When “Called” Isn’t Enough
These are the generations of Aaron and Moses at the time when the Lord spoke with Moses on Mount Sinai. 2 These are the names of the sons of Aaron: Nadab the firstborn, and Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar. 3 These are the names of the sons of Aaron, the anointed...
A Disciplined People
As Christians, how we settle, how we war, how we camp, and who we surround ourselves with matters in the order of things. The way we structure our lives (our rhythms, our relationships, our worship) reveals what and who sits at the center of our hearts. God doesn’t...
When Obedience Feels Like Risk
Yesterday I finally shared publicly about the new book — after being a little hidden and MIA for a while — and the response was incredible. So much encouragement, so much love, so many kind words. And I panicked. Not because I’m worried about sales. Not because I’m...
